EUROGINE intrauterine devices are a decisive answer to the high demands placed on state-of-the-art contraceptives.
  
EUROGINE recognizes that modern women today need different types of contraceptive devices and caters to them with the widest range of contraceptives on the world market.
 
EUROGINE intrauterine devices are offered in three basic types and in three sizes. However , EUROGINE was not satisfied with just this type of personalization and at the same time offers women three different materials, thus guaranteeing maximum comfort and effectiveness of the contraceptive body.
 
Standard intrauterine devices commonly used today are made of soft plastic in combination with fine copper fiber . However, EUROGINE devices are also the only ones to use precious metals: silver, gold, which for their antibacterial properties effectively reduce some possible discomforts resulting from the use of intrauterine contraception.
 
EUROGINE bodies are effective for at least five years. Their reliability is just as high during this time.
 
Bodies EUROGIN are also an ideal alternative for women who do not want to use hormonal contraceptives, but they want to be reliably protected from unplanned pregnancy.
 
Description
The Cu-IUCD is a long-acting reversible contraceptive (LARC). It is typically T-shaped or frameless and is anchored to the myometrium at the fundus. The amount of copper in the device and the type of frame (structure) can affect the effectiveness of different models. The T- shaped models with a surface area of 380 mm2 of copper have the lowest failure rates. Earlier models with lower effectiveness are no longer produced worldwide.
The addition of small quantities of silver to the core prevents fragmentation of the copper, extending the lifespan and efficacy. In some countries the addition of other noble metals such as gold is used for the same effect.
Cost-effectiveness
The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) advises that all currently available LARC methods (IUCDs, the IUS, injectable contraceptives and implants) are more cost-effective than the combined oral contraceptive (COC) pill even at one year of use[1]. IUCDs, the IUS and implants are also more cost-effective than the injectable contraceptives. NICE also advises that increasing the uptake of LARC methods will reduce the numbers of unintended pregnancies. It is important that women should be advised of LARC methods when seeking contraception.
Although IUCDs are used by large numbers of women, global distribution of their use is uneven. In a few countries, including China and most of Central Asia, IUCDs constitute at least half of all contraceptive use[2]. In Northern Africa and the Middle East, they represent about a quarter of all use, and in parts of Europe, about a fifth. In the Americas, IUCD use is generally well below 10%. In the UK their use is between 11.3 and 12.1%[3].
Mode of action
The primary mode of action is through setting up a cytotoxic inflammatory reaction in the endometrium, which is spermicidal.
The copper concentration in cervical mucus is also substantial and inhibits sperm motility.
The copper devices may also prevent implantation if fertilisation occurs. However, the studies suggesting this were of older devices with lower copper content, and there is no clear evidence that modern devices allow fertilisation to occur.
The postcoital use of copper devices utilises this post-fertilisation contraceptive effect.
Effectiveness
Many factors determine efficacy in individual women, including sexual activity, age and parity.
Cumulative pregnancy rates for IUCDs with copper content >300 mm2are noted as being between 0.1% and 1% after the first year of use and around 2.2% for the TCu380A after 12 years[4].
Longer-acting devices are generally preferred, as this reduces the risks associated with removal and re-insertion (perforation, infection, expulsion).
Short-stemmed devices can be used if the uterine cavity is less than 6.5 cm at sounding.
